vhpy vhpy vhpy
Last night I went over to Flo's, to get the financials sorted and see where to go from there.

My first task was to draw a picture of the trike so I can get to know the names of the different components.

This morning I went out for my first lesson, Pre-flight and Taxi-ing. vhpy vhpy , I even did solo taxi-ing, it was great.

Can't wait for my next lesson.

Remember every minute of what you are doing now....

You'll reflect back on it later in your flying career....

Ek leer sommer weer om te vlieg it's so lekker!

GOOD LUCK - PERSEVERE & SAFETY FIRST!

I guess I should have been more specific :cry:

Woke up this morning, looked up at the sky and it was clear, no wind, great weather. Then I get the dreaded phone call, sorry QNH at 1012-1013, no good for flying.. :cry:

Next time I'll be more specific and ask for good weather and QNH :roll:
